84-Year-Old Woman Donates Kidney, Becomes Oldest Donor at SMS Hospital

An 84-year-old woman named Buddho Devi donated her kidney to her daughter, Guddi, who had kidney disease.

This made Buddho Devi the oldest person to donate a kidney at the SMS Hospital in Jaipur.

Doctors usually don't take kidney donations from people over 60-65, but Buddho Devi was healthy.

She said she was happy to help her daughter and had lived a healthy life.

The surgery happened on May 23rd, and both the donor and recipient are doing well.

This is seen as a hopeful case for others with kidney problems and shows that age isn't always a barrier to helping loved ones.
